To  Sons  and  Daughters  of  Union  Veterans  of  the  Civil  War.  Hoping 
that  their  organization  may  go  down  the  years  hand  in  hand  with  Sons  and 
Daughters  of  those,  who  through  great  trials  and  many  years  struggled  to

\W      INTRODUCTION 

ABRAHAM  LINCOLN  -  THE  PRICE  HE  PAID 

Is  a  compiled  history  of  the  American  Civil  War.  An  unique  interweav- 
ing of  Lincoln's  Gettysburg  Address,  with  the  price  he  paid  in  blood  and 
treasure  to  save  our  Nation.  In  this  address  we  find  two  hundred  find  sixty- 
seven  words,  and  near  twelve  hundred  letters,  each  letter  reflecting  a  battle 
fought,  the  shedding  of  blood,  or  other  events  connected  with  the  war,  many 
of  which  are  not  mentioned  in  history.  In  brief,  "The  Price  He  Paid"  is  a 
history  of  that  war  condensed  to  a  nut-shell,  the  address  itself  a  summary  of 
the  great  sacrifce  made  to  save  the  Union,  and  to  destroy  it.  Events  and 
statistics  used  in  this  compilation  are  largely  taken  from  official  records 
found  in  the  War  Department,  where  reports  were  received  and  recorded 
directly  from  fields  of  operation,  three  score  years  ago.  Reading  over  the 
names  of  battles,  with  casualties  given  here  in  detail,  will  enable  the  reader 
to  more  fully  realize  the  magnitude  of  the  most  deadly  civil  war  known  in 
history. 

In  compiling  names  of  battles,  we  find  a  number  were  fought  over  the 
same  grounds,  at  different  dates,  all  bearing  the  same  name.  Many  are 
known  under  different  names,  as  Bull  Run  and  Manassas,  Murfresboro  and 
Stone  River,  Shiloh  and  Pittsburg  Landing.  The  battle  officially  recorded 
as  Chattanooga  is  often  called  Lookout  Mountain  or  Missionary  Ridge.  Bat- 
tles known  as  Ellison's  Mills,  Gaines  Mill,  Chickahominy,  Savage  Station, 
Nelson  Farm,  Fraziers  Farm,  Turkey  Bend,  Newmarket  Cross  Roads  and 
Malvern  Hill,  Va.  are  officially  recorded  "The  Seven  Days  Retreat."  As  far  as 
possible  these  names  are  given  in  this  compilation. 

Losses  given  in  battle  were  sometimes  estimated  and  in  minor  engage- 
ments not  always  given  on  the  enemy's  side.  Information  giving  losses  suffered 
by  the  enemy  was  sometimes  given  by  prisoners  and  deserters,  or  found  in 
enemy  newspapers,  therefore  not  reliable.  Comparing  official  records  of  cas- 
ualties with  statements  made  in  a  number  of  histories  of  the  civil  war,  a 
wide  difference  is  frequently  found,  so  it  was  deemed  the  better  way  to  com- 
pile this  work  almost  entirely  from  records  found  in  the  War  Department. 
This  conclusion  was  arrived  at  when  it  was  found  that  one  historian  had 
General  J.  D.  Cox  commanding  a  division  of  Union  troops  on  the  Georgia 
campaign  and  governing  the  State  of  Ohio  during  the  same  period.  While 
another  historian  has  a  confederate  general  commanding  a  division  of  Union 
troops  on  the  Atlanta  campaign,  and  other  errors  are  found. 

It  was  not  until  the  war  closed,  when  a  final  summing  up  of  casualties 
gave  a  more  accurate  account. 

In  this  unique  history  of  the  Civil  war  is  woven  names  of 
battles  fought  and  their  losses;  number  of  enlistments  from  each 
State  of  the  Union  and  losses  in  killed  and  died  of  wounds  and  disease;  num- 
ber of  prisoners  taken  and  losses  by  death  in  prisons;  number  of  Negro  and 
Indians  enlisted  and  losses;  secession  of  States  and  restoration  to  the  Union; 
number  of  slaves  set  free,  cost  of  the  wars,  etc. 

Statistics  will  be  found  that  are  instructive,  interesting  and  handy  as 
ready  reference.  As  a  compilation  of  important  events  during  twelve  years 
struggle  to  found  this  Nation  and  protect  it,  the  book  will  be  a  convenient 
text  for  the  student.    With  the  military  service  record  of  an  ancestor  entered 


ABRAHAM  LINCOLN 

on  the  blank  page,  it  will  be  a  pleasing  gift  to  descendants  who  may  follow 
down  the  years. 

Reading  down  the  initial  letter  of  the  lines  one  will  find  a  brief  address, 
quite  disappointing  to  many  listeners  when  delivered  but  now  classed  as  a 
masterpiece  in  literature. 

When  Lincoln  said  in  his  Gettysburg  address  that  "the  world  would 
little  note,  nor  long  remember  what  he  said  there,"  he  had  no  thought  that 
his  words  would  live  throughout  the  years.  It  seems  to  have  taken  time  to 
measure  Lincoln,  fully.  His  sublime  character,  a  standard  for  mankind,  seems 
to  unfold  with  the  passing  years.  His  life  was  one  of  unselfish  devotion  and 
sacrifice  to  his  country.  None  can  truthfully  say  that  he  had  not  moved  with 
the  thought  of  justice  toward  all  in  every  act  of  his  administration.  His  great 
power  was  always  used  on  the  side  of  mercy.  Malice  was  foreign  to  his  na- 
ture, it  had  no  abiding  place  in  him.  His  convictions  were  deep  and  strong. 
He  denounced  slavery  as  a  self  evident  evil;  a  violation  of  the  Divine  will, 
threatening  decay  of  the  Nation,  yet  he  pitied  the  slaveholder.  He  drew  in- 
spiration from  history  of  deserted  ruins,  of  dead  empires,  and  the  cause  of 
their  fall,  so  well  and  vividly  described  by  an  American  traveler  and  writer 
who,  standing  amid  these  ruins  said. 

"Seeing  on  every  hand  the  fallen  pillars,  I  ask,  why  did  they  fall,  why 
did  the  empire  crumble?  And  the  ghost  of  the  past,  the  wisdom  of  the  ages 
answers.  These  temples,  these  palaces,  these  cities,  the  ruins  on  which  you 
stand  were  built  by  tyrany  and  injustice.  The  hands  that  built  them  were 
unpaid,  the  backs  that  bore  the  burden  also  bore  the  marks  of  the  lash.  They 
were  built  by  slaves  to  satisfy  the  vanity  and  ambition  of  robbers.  For  these 
reasons  they  are  dust.  Their  civilization  was  a  lie.  Their  laws  merely  reg- 
ulated robbery  and  established  theft.  They  bought  and  sold  the  bodies  and 
souls  of  men.  And  the  mournful  winds  of  desolation,  sighing  among  these 
crumbling  ruins  is  a  voice  of  prophetic  warning  to  those  who  would  repeat 
the  infamous  experience,  uttering  the  great  truth  that  no  Nation  founded 
upon   slavery,   either  of  body  or  mind  can  stand." 

Few  men,  if  any,  have  said  as  much  in  so  few  words  as  we  find  in  Lin- 
coln's Gettysburg  Address.  His  sincere,  earnest  and  almost  pathetic  appeal 
to  the  public  "to  be  there  dedicated  to  the  task  remaining,"  came  from  one 
almost  overwhelmed  with  the  great  responsibility  of  a  Nation's  life  resting 
upon  him,  \ait  the  most  critical  period  of  its  existence.  Lincoln  not  only  had 
the  enemy  in  the  South  to  contend  with,  but  he  had  enemies  in  the  North, 
and  to  add  to  these  he  was  beset  by  pestilent,  fanatical  critics  in  the  North. 
Little  wonder  that  he  expressed  a  willingness  to  exchange  place  with  some 
private  soldier  in  the  ranks.  But  it  had  been  his  lot  since  boyhood  to  meet 
and  overcome  depressing  hindrances,  and  these  had  prepared  him  to  meet 
the  ordeal  through  which  he  was  passing.  The  crisis  predicted  by  Lincoln 
had  arrived.     His  was  the  guiding  hand  selected  to  meet  that  crisis. 

Now,  after  the  passing  of  three  score  years,  we  look  back  in  wonder  and 
amazement  to  the  Presidential  election  of  1864.  The  war  was  then  practically 
won,  the  Union  was  saved,  and  its  blight  of  centuries  removed,  yet  we  find 
that  near  two  million  votes  were  cast  against  Lincoln  in  the  loyal  states, 
and  three  of  these  states  were  carried  by  his  opponent.     The  soldier  vote  in 


THE  PRICE  HE  PAID 

the  fields,  and  'absence  of  the  vote  of  eleven  rebellious  states,  probably  saved 
Lincoln  from  defeat  at  that  time.  

What  the  Union  Army  accomplished  in  the  Civil  War  will  go  down  with 
the  history  of  the  nation  it  saved.  But  there  is  an  unwritten  history  of  that 
war,  written  only  in  the  memory  of  the  soldier  as  he  served  on  the  firing  line 
and  in  the  trenches,  there  to  remain  and  perish  with  him.  His  personal  ex- 
perience in  the  war  could  not  be  given  in  history,  yet  this  is  a  part  in  which 
his  children,  down  the  years,  will  be  deeply  interested  and  concerned.  His 
marches  by  day  and  by  night,  his  fighting  and  digging  his  way  to  win  the 
war,  his  hard  marches  under  blistering  rays  of  Southern  mid-summer  sun; 
his  suffering  while  lying  wounded  and  uncared  for  on  the  battle-field  or  his 
months  of  torture  in  the  enemy's  prisons. 

History  will  not  reveal  to  his  posterity  that  he  suffered  any  of  these  or 
that  he  was  in  the  war.  The  untold  story  of  sacrifice,  suffering  and  valor 
resting  in  one  hundred  and  fifty  thousand  graves  of  unidentified  Union  sol- 
diers, and  beneath  the  tide,  with  fates  unknown  and  forever  lost  to  widows, 
children  or  parents  of  these  victims  of  war.  Many,  many  distressing  scenes 
of  war,  all  so  deeply  engraved  upon  the  memory  of  the  soldier,  finds  no  place 
in  the  annals  of  our  country 

It  seems  fitting  that  a  few  closing  sentences  of  Lincoln's  inaugural  ad- 
dresses and  his  emancipation  proclomation  should  find  a  place  here. 

As  a  war  measure  he  issued,  in  September,  18.62,  a  warning  to  the  States 
in  rebellion  that  unless  they  ceased  resistance  to  the  legal  authorities  of  the 
United  States  within  one  hundred  days,  all  persons  held  in  slavery  in  States 
then  in  rebellion  would  be  declared  free.  This  only  fired  the  south  with  re- 
newed determination  to  win  the  war  and  was  followed  by  conscription  of 
every  man  in  the  seceded  States  who  was  able  to  perform  military  duty.  The 
great  battles  of  Gettysburg,  Chickamauga,  Atlanta  and  many  others  fol- 
lowed until  April,  1865  and  close  of  the  war. 

On  the  1st.  day  of  January,  1863  the  promised  Emancipation  Proclamation 
was  issued  to  take  effect  in  all  States  then  in  rebellion,  and  this  finally  re- 
sulted in  freeing  all  slaves  in  the  United  States.  After  this  declaration  "that 
all  persons  held  in  slavery  shall  be  thence  forward  and  forever  free."  Lincoln 
closes  the  proclamation  as  follows, 

"And  upon  this,  sincerely  believed  to  be  an  act  of  justice  warranted  by 
the  Constitution  upon  military  necessity,  I  invoke  the  considerate  judgment 
of  mankind  and  the  gracious  favor  of  Almighty  God." 

Lincoln's  first  inaugural  address  was  delivered  March  4,  1861,  while 
slave  states  were  passing  ordinances  of  secession  from  the  Union,  seizing 
forts,  arsenals  and  other  government  property  in  their  States.  In  this  ad- 
dress he  made  an  earnest  and  strong  appeal  to  the  people  of  these  States  to 
remain  loyal  to  the  Union,  but  this  appeal  was  unheeded  by  eleven  States. 
The  Stars  and  Stripes  were  shot  down   and  war  followed. 

In  closing  this  address  Lincoln  said,  "In  your  hands,  my  dissatisfied 
countrymen,  and  not  in  mine,  rests  the  momentous  issue  of  civil  war.  The 
government  will  not  assail  you.  You  can  have  no  conflict  without  yourselves 
being  the  aggressors.     You  have  no  oath  registered  in  heaven  to  destroy  the 


ABRAHAM  LINCOLN 

Government;  while  I  shall  have  the  most  solemn  one  to  preserve,  protect  and 
defend  it. 

I  am  loath  to  close.  We  are  not  enemies,  but  friends.  We  must  not  be 
enemies.  Though  passion  may  have  strained,  it  must  not  break  our  bond  of 
affection.  The  mystic  chords  of  memory,  stretching  from  every  battlefield 
and  patriot  grave;  to  every  living  heart  and  hearthstone  all  over  this  broad 
land,  will  yet  swell  the  chorus  of  the  Union,  when  again  touched,  as  it  surely 
will  be,  by  the  better  angels  of  our  nature." 

The  second  inaugural  address  was  made  four  years  later,  when  the  war 
was  near  its  close.  It  was  then  plainly  seen  that  rebellion  and  human  bond- 
age was  doomed.  During  this  interval  of  four  years  about  one  million  men 
were  killed  in  battle,  died  of  wounds  or  disease  in  hospitals  and  prisons,  or 
maimed  for  life.*  Billions  had  been  expended  in  war  and  wasted  in  destruc- 
tion of  property.  No  president  has  ever  been  so  criticised  by  friends,  or  so 
bitterly  assailed  by  enemies,  both  North  and  South,  as  fell  to  the  lot  of  Lin- 
coln. Yet  not  a  word  of  censure  to  his  defamers  or  critics  do  we  find  in  any 
of  his  addresses,  or  toward  those  who  were  responsible  for  the  great  disaster 
that  had  befallen  the  nation.  Lincoln's  mind  was  then  centered  on  "bind- 
ing up  the  Nation's  wounds,  to  bring  a  just  and  lasting  peace."  His  sym- 
pathy for  the  vanquished,  suffering  and  impoverished  people  who  had  brought 
this  misery  upon  the  Country,  had  effaced  all  feeling  of  animosity  he  might 
have  felt  during  the  struggle  to  save  and  wreck  the  Union.  Could  Lincoln 
have  lived  throughout  his  term  of  office,  his  efforts  to  remove,  as  far  as  pos- 
sible, sad  memories  of  the  conflict,  and  his  method  of  reconstruction  of  the 
States  in  rebellion,  would  no  doubt  have  brought  criticism,  if  not  condemn- 
ation from  radicals  in  the  North,  notably  from  those  who  were  always  more 
ready  to  criticise  and  give  unsolicited  advice  than  to  shoulder  a  musket. 
When  demands  were  made  that  Davis  and  other  conspirators  should  be  tried 
for  treason  and  suffer  its  penalty,  Lincolns  only  reply  was,  "Judge  not  that 
ye  be  not  judged."  This  was  the  spirit  of  Lincoln  as  shown  in  his  younger 
days  when  he  was  forced  in  self  defense  to  chastise  a  bully,  then  brought 
water  and  bathed  the  wounds  he  had  inflicted  upon  his  vanquished  foe. 

The  spirit  of  Lincoln  manifested  throughout  Europe  might  aid  in  heal- 
ing wounds   from  which  that  distressed  country   is  now   suffering. 

The  spirit  of  Lincoln  lives  on,  an  inspiration  to  his  countrymen  who 
"with  malice  toward  none,  with  charity  for  all'  are  ministering  to  a  suffer, 
ing  world. 

Closing  paragraphs  of  Lincoln's  second   inaugural  address: 

"Fondly  do  we  hope,  fervently  do  we  pray,  that  this  mighty  scourge  of 
war  may  speedily  pass  away.  Yet  if  God  wills  it  continue  until  all  the 
wealth  piled  by  the  bondsman's  two  hundred  and  fifty  years  of  unrequited 
toil  shall  be  sunk,  and  every  drop  of  blood  drawn  by  the  lash  shall  be  paid 
for  by  another  drawn  with  the  sword,  as  was  said  three  thousand  years  ago, 
so  still  it  must  be  said,  the  judgments  of  the  Lord  are  true  and  righteous  al- 
together." 

"With  malice  toward  none,  with  charity  for  all,  with  firmness  for  the 
right,  as  God  gives  us  to  see  the  right,  let  us  strive  on  to  finish  the  work  we 
are  in;  to  bind  up  the  Nation's  wounds,  to  care  for  him  who  has  borne  the 
battle,  and    for  his  widow  and  orphans  and  do  all  which   may  achieve  and 


THE  PRICE  HE  PAID 

cherish  a  just  and  lasting  peace  among  ourselves  and  with  all  Nations/' 

Forty  days  after  he  delivered  this  address  Lincoln  found  peace  and  rest. 
The  assassin's  hand,  guided  by  treason  and  revenge  accomplished  its  work 
and  a  Nation  was  left  in  mourning.  Lincoln,  the  greatest  American,  passed 
on  to  the  ages,  to  be  remembered  with  reverence  when  graven  marble  has 
crumbled. 

"Thy  task  is  done;  the  bond  are  free; 
We  bear  thee  to   an  honored  grave, 
Whose  proudest  momument  shall  be 
The  broken  fetters  of  the  slave." 

With  pride  we  soldiers  of  the  civil  war  share  with  the  immortal  Eman- 
cipator the  honor  of  saving  this  Union,  and  with  pride  we  leave  to  our  chil- 
dren these  personal  records  of  our  service  as  a  precious  heritage  to  become 
more  and  more  a  treasure  to  them  with  the  passing  years. 

We  cannot  at  this  time  realize  how  eagerly  future  generations  will  be 
seeking  for  records  of  ancestors  who  have  served  in  our  Nation's  wars.  For 
many  years  descendants  of  those  who  served  under  Washington  have  vainly 
sought  for  evidence  that  will  admit  them  to  the  ranks  of  Sons  and  Daughters 
of  the  Revolution.  Even  now  we  find  many  descendants  of  civil  war  soldiers 
who  have  scant  knowledge  of  their  ancestors  service  in  that  war. 

Fill  out  the  blank  page  found  in  these  books  and  pass  them  out  to  chil- 
dren, grandchildren  and  great  grandchildren.  This  is  a  duty  you  owe  to 
these  children  and  to  yourself.  You  will  find  that  later  generations  are 
more  interested  than  earlier  ones. 

DO  NOT  PERMIT  YOUR  SOLDIER  RECORDS     IN     OUR     COUNTRY'S 
WARS  TO  FADE  AWAY  AND  PERISH. 


Construction  of  an  acrostic  of  Lincoln's  Gettysburg  address  and  the 
evolution  of  a  new  nation  is  rather  a  tedious,  yet  an  interesting  and  instruc- 
tive task.  About  sixteen  hundred  words  must  be  found  and  placed  in  posi- 
tion. Events  herein  enumerated  cover  two  periods  in  our  country's  history, 
from  1765  to  1790  and  1861  to  1865.  Presented  in  this  condensed  form  these 
events  will  be  more  deeply  impressed  upon  the  memory  than  if  gathered  by 
research   through  many  pages  of  history. 

Weaving  of  these  events  and  names  in  the  order  in  which 
they  occured  has  not  been  altogether  successfully  worked  out,  nor 
in  the  grouping  of  dates.  Need  of  certain  letters  is  largely  supplied  by  a 
fortunate  elasticity  of  the  English  language,  and  the  over  supply  of  other 
letters  has  been  disposed  of  with  the  aid  of  names  of  States  in  which  those 
events  occurred.

OUR  FATHERS  BROUGHT  FORTH 


A   NEW  NATION 


"Our  Fathers  Brought  Forth  A  New  Nation" 

Summary  of  events  leading-  to  the  founding  of  a  new  Nation,  evolved 
from    thirteen  English   colonies   located   on   the  continent  of  North  America. 

At  the  close  of  a  war  between  England  and  France  in  17G3,  a  treaty 
of  peace  between  tihese  countries,  gave  to  England  that  territory  lying 
north  of  Florida  and  east  of  the  Mississippi  river  and  extending  to  the 
Atlantic  ocean.  During  this  war,  and  in  past  Indian  wars,  in  aid  to  the 
mother  country,  these  colonies  contributed  sixteen  million  dollars  to  the 
English  war  fund  and  lost  in  wars  or  murdered  by  Indians  about  thirty 
thousand    soldiers    and    citizens. 

For  this  service  and  sacrifice,  the  colonists  were  rewarded  by  the  king 
of  England  with  additional  burdens  placed  upon  them,  in  the  way  of 
taxation,  the  paying  of  heavy  duties,  the  placing  of  restrictions  upon 
commerce,  and  interfering  with  local  government  of  the  colonies.  This 
was  kept  up  amid  turmoil  and  bloodshed  for  many  years,  until  hope  of 
relief  was  abandoned  by  the  colonists.  In  1776  a  declaration  of  independence 
was  passed  by  the  Continental  Congress,  and  the  long  struggle  for  freedom 
from  the  English  yoke  followed.  During  these  years  many  English  people 
opposed  the  king  in  his  arbitrary  ill  treatment  of  the  American  colonists, 
but  the  House  of  Lord^  and  the  so-called  nobility  supported  him  in  his 
determination    to   subjugate   the  Americans   by   force  of  arms. 

The  statement  made  in  this  Declaration  of  Independence  that  all  men 
are  created  equal,  seemed  to  awaken  royalty  ridden  Europe.  It  was 
startling  and  alarming  to  the  riders  and  a  revelation  to' the  ridden.  Some 
one  has  said  that  "Princes  and  Lords  are  but  the  breath  of  Kings",  and  on 
this  breath  rests  the  kings  hope  of  perpetuating  his  ancient  and  decaying 
system  of  government.  A  number  of  European  nations,  formerly  Lmverned 
by  rulers  forced  upon  them  by  the  accident  of  birth,  .have,  since  that  time, 
abolished  this  antiquated  form  of  government  believing  it  to  be  a  delusion 
and  a  menace  to  peace  among  nations. 

But  -there  was  one  Englishman  to  whom  Americans  should  erect  a 
memorial  bearing  an  inscription  of  the  noble  prophetic  words  of  warning 
delivered  to  the  house  of  lords  in  England.  July,  1775.  This  man  was  the 
venerable  William  Pitt,  former  premier  of  England.  In  reply  to  a  bill  of 
rights  submitted  to  England  by  the  American  colonists,  Mr.  Pitt  said, 
"When  your  lordships  look  at  the  papers  transmitted  us  from  America, 
when  you  consider  their  decency,  firmness  and  wisdom,  you  cannot  but 
respect  their  cause  and  wish  to  make  it  your  own.  For  myself,  I  must 
avow  that  in  all  my  reading— and  I  have  read  Thucydides  and  have  studied 
and  admired  the  Master  states  of  the  world  -for  solidity  of  reason,  force 
of  sagacity,  wisdom  of  conclusion,  under  a  complication  of  difficult  circum- 
stances, no  Nation  or  body  of  men  can  stand  in  preference  Ito  the  general 
congress  at  Philapelphia.  The  historians  of  Greece  and  Rome  give  us 
nothing  equal  to  it  and  ail  attempts  to  impose  servitude  upon,  suqh  a 
mighty  continental  nation   must   be   in   vain.  We  shall   b<  ultimately 

to  retract.  Let  us  retract  while  we  can.   not  when    v  Thi

OUR  FATHERS  BROUGHT  FORTH  A  NEW  NATION 

acts  must  be  repealed.  You  will  repeal  them,  I  pledge  my  word  for  it.  I 
stake  my  reputation  on  it,  that  you  will  in  the  end  repeal  them;  avoid  then 
the  humilliating  necessity." 

But  the  house  of  lords  did  not  retract,  while  the  retractinjg  was  good. 
It  suffered  the  humilliating  necessity.  It  unwillingly  founded  a  Nation 
then  harrassed  that  Nation  during  its  period  of  development  and  its  domes- 
tic trouble,  by  giving  aid  and  comfort  to  its  enemies.  It  unwittingly  founded 
a  Nation  that  saved  the  mother  country  from  great  humiliation,  if  not 
disaster,  one  hundred  and  forty  years  later.  It  founded  a  Nation  that  has 
taken  its  place  as  the  leading  Nation  of  the  earth,  that  has  increased  in 
wealth  over  all  other  Nations,  that  has  increased  in  population  from  two 
and  one  ihalf  million  to  one  hundred  and  ten  million  in  a  short  period  of  time, 
as   time    is   measured   in    the  annals   of  Nations. 

At  the  close  of  the  Revolutionary  war,  Thomas  Jefferson  was  sen* 
abroad  as  Minister  to  a  foreign  country.  Writing  to  a  friend  in  America  in 
1789  he  has  tihis  to  say,  "I  was  much  an  enemy  to  Monarchies  before  I  came 
to  Europe,  and  am  ten  thousand  times  more  so  since  I  have  seen  what  they 
are.  There  is  scarcely  an  evil  known  in  these  countries  which  may  not  be 
traced  to  their  king  as  its  source,  nor  a  good  wjhich  is  not  derived  from  the 
small  fibres  of  republicanism  existing  among  them.  I  can  further  say  that 
there  is  not  a  crowned  head  in  Europe  whose  talents  or  merits  would  en- 
title him  to  be  elected  a  vestryman  by  the  people  of  any  American  parish. 
******Our  young  Republic  should  besiege  the  throne  of  heaven  with 
eternal  prayers  to  extirpate  from  creation  this  class  of  human  tigers,  lions 
and  mammoths.,  called  kings,  from  whom,  let  him  perish  who  does  not  say, 
Good  Lord  deliver  us'.  He  hoped  that  "revolutions  would  be  established  all 
over  Europe  to   protect   the   people   from  royal   idiots." 

The  great  apostle  of  democracy  seemed  to  be  rough  on  royalty.  He  sel- 
dom missed  an  opportunity  to  twist  the  British  lions  tail.  Yet,  we  know  that 
the  greatest^  war  known  in  history  can  be  traced  to  monarchial  intrigue.  We 
see  what  "tigers  and  lions"  did  for  Europe  during  the  last  de- 
cade. Monarchies  will  live  while  its  victims  are  submissive 
aind  pay  homage  to  hocus  pocus  royalty  and  its  assumption  of  superiority. 
This  so-called  royalty  will  never  willingly  move  to  compass  its  own  de- 
struction. Legislators  'are  slow  to  antagonize  the  will  of  "His  Imperial 
Majesty".  They  know  not  when  "His  Highness"  may  find  it  good  policy 
to  breathe  a  little  of  this  so-called  nobility  upon  them.  Even  Americans  (or 
rather,  American  citizens)  are  found  who  are  willing  to  exchange  good 
motney  and  accept  hjad  bargains  that  they  may  add  a  little  of  nobility  to 
the   family. 

It  seems  that  the  colonies  ovf  North  America  were  ordained  to  lead  on 
the  highway  of  civilization  and  progress  by  proclaiming  the  self  evident 
truth  that  all  men  are  created  equal;  "that  government  derives  its  just 
power  from  the  consent  of  the  governed"  or,  as  Lincoln  defined  it,  "No  man 
has  the  right  to  govern  another  man  without  that  other  man's  consent.' 

In  this  acrostic  of  the  thirteen  colonies  will  be  found  names  of  fifty- 
si"*   signers    of    the   Declaration    of   Independence,    giving-    vear   of  birth    and 


OUR  FATHERS  BROUGHT  FORTH  A  NEW  NATION 

death;  also  battles  fought  by  the  Continentals  to  gain  their  independence, 
ending  with  the  great  general  who  led  that  army  and  became  first  president 
of  the  New  Nation.  When  the  war  closed  many  of  the  signers  had  sacrificed 
their  fortunes,   and  soldiers  were  unpaid. 

Fourteen  of  these  signers  did  not  live  to  see  their  hopes  of  independence 
realized.  But  twenty-one  l'ived  to  see  the  dawn  of  the  new  century.  These 
patriotic  statesmen  and  army  of  Continentals  builded  better  than  they 
knew  or  dreamed,  perhaps,  and  could  live  to  witness  but  a  small  measure 
of  the  wonderful  development  of  their  /handiwork.  Charles  Carroll,  last 
surviving  signer  of  he  Declaration  of  Independence  died  in  1832  at 
the  age  of  ninety-five  years,  when  the  population  of  the  United  States  was 
about  equal  that  of  tjie  state  of  New  York  at  the  present   time. 

After  enumerating  the  many  causes  leading  to  separation  of  the  colonies 
from  the  mother  country,  the  Continental  Congress  closes  its  appeal  with 
the  following  paragraph  in  the   Declaration  of  Independence.: 

"We  therefore,  the  representatives  of  the  United  States  of  America, 
in  Congress  assembled,  appealing  to  the  supreme  Judge  of  the  World  for 
the  rectitude  of  our  intentions,  doj,  in  the  name  and  by  the  authority  of 
the  good  people  of  the  colonies,  solemnly  publish  and  declare  that  these 
colonies  are  and  of  right  ought  to  be  free  and  independent  states,  that  they 
are  absolved  from  all  allegience  to  the  British  crown,  and  that  all  polit- 
ical connection  between  them  and  the  state  of  Great  Briiain  is,  and  ought 
to  be  totally  dissolved;  that,  as  free  and  Independent  States,  they  have  full 
power  to  levy  war,  conclude  peace,  contract  alliances,  establish  commerce, 
and  do  all  other  acts  whiah  independent  States  may  of  right  do.  And  for 
the  support  of  this  declaration,  and  in  the  firm  reliance  of  the  protection 
of  Divine  Providence,  WE  MUTUALLY  PLEDGE  TO  EACH  OTHER  OUR 
LIVES,  OUR  FORTUNES    AND  OUR   SACRED   HONOR".

Footprints  Through  Dixie 

186  Pages 

Is  a  story  of  the  man  under  a  musket,  while  dn  the  caml,p,  on  the 
march,  in  tihe  trenches  and  on  the  battle  line.  The  story  that  cannot  be 
written   in   history  as  it    is  written  in  his  memory. 

"Footprints  Through  Dixie"  is  compiled  from  the  diary  of  a  soldier 
who  served  three  years  in  the  ranks  during-  the  Civil  War,  describing" 
incidents  and  scenes  of  army  life  and  the  life   the  soldier  lived  day  by  day. 

Character    sketches,    typical    of    soldiers    found    in    every    company    in    that 
grand   old   army. 

A  Comrade,  ordering  a  second  copy  of  the  book  as  a  gift  to  his  grandson 
writes: 

"The  descriptive  text  in  "Footprints  Through  Dixie  '  shows  great  care 
in  preparation,  anid  a  wonderful  knowledge  of  facts  relating  to  the  soldier's 
personal   experience. 

Eaoh  company  had  its  lively  fellows  overflowing  with  fun;  its  sad  and 
solemn  chaps  to  carry  the  company's  burden  of  grief;  its  many  true  heroes 
and  very  few  skulkers. 

The  illustrations  show  to  a  T  the  varied  scenes  of  soldier  life,  so  full 
of  tragedy  and  comedy,  and  so  true  to  the  life  we  lived.
